I attended a wedding in early October 2024
at The Philadelphia Free Library and Brûlée
Catering provided the foods and drinks. Every morsel and drop was totally delicious, and their wait staff was very knowledgeable and polite. I ate the black cod with mashed potatoes and it was so
scrumptious. Their salad was equally tasty!
I also drank a small glass of dark chocolate liqueur and a small glass of wine during the meal and of course, water. ?Decaf coffee and dessert - the wedding cake - was superb as well. Brûlée catering
is outstanding. ? Thank you to all their cooks, bakers, bartenders, and to Teishon, Cody, and Alaina for all your fantastic knowledge about food, drinks and people’s tastes about edibles. ?
We had our wedding at the Parkway Central Library in Philadelphia in June of 2024 with Brulee catering. The staff and chefs at Brulee were excellent. They kept everything running smoothly and the food was tasty. If this review was just about them, we would be able to give a fully glowing review. Unfortunately, Brulee’s venue coordinator was disastrous and nearly ruined our wedding by creating an unsafe situation that injured one of our guests.
When we toured the venue, we specifically asked about dangerous steps around the mezzanine level where cocktail hour is held. We were reassured by the coordinator that these would be blocked or guests would be moved away from the area. On the day of our wedding, the steps were not blocked in any way and the only safety measure was a small amount of tape marking the steps.
One of our guests fell down these steps and hit his head, which caused a lot of bleeding and required hospitalization. Thankfully, he is ok and only required some stitches, but this was a disaster that should not have happened.
If you are having a wedding at the Parkway Central Library - please make sure that the steps are blocked and guests are moved away from the area.
On top of this, the coordinator we worked with was extremely disorganized and unresponsive. She mixed up details about our wedding often, and her lack of management and responsiveness added stress that we did not need. If we did not have to use Brulee as required by the venue, we would not have done so due to this coordinator.
Fortunately for you, this coordinator is no longer working with Brulee. In another bizarre move, she told us the night of our wedding that it was her last day with the company and to talk to “someone over there” if we needed anything after the wedding.
We really appreciate the work of the staff and chefs - they were great and highly recommended. It is a shame that the coordinator was not up to their level.
Why did they just hang up on me
From the contact to Mutiple revisions, Alexandra Kelly was the MVP of the whole process and event. Just a wonderful lady. The set up was beautiful. The food was tasty, and the service was very friendly and responsive. They elevated the event. It was worth it.
Always outstanding service
We are so happy that we chose Brûlée for our wedding day! Alysha, Kay, and the rest of the team worked with us through every step of the planning process and created a perfect menu tailored to our tastes and dietary restrictions. Both in advance of our wedding and on the day of, Brûlée ensured every request was met and no detail was overlooked. Alysha guided us through the process making the whole experience as smooth as possible. She always took time to answer all of our questions and often had already anticipated our concerns. Her team was professional and thoughtful. We couldn't have asked for better catering and event coordination.
We recently hosted our Employee Holiday Party at the Museum of the American Revolution, catered by Brulee Catering, and it was an absolutely incredible experience from start to finish!The venue itself provided a stunning backdrop for our festivities, and the team at Brulee Catering went above and beyond to ensure that every detail of our event was flawless. From the moment we began planning, Jai and Lorena guided us through the process with professionalism and expertise, making sure that every aspect of the evening was tailored to our needs.Throughout the event, the staff was attentive and accommodating, ensuring that all of our guests felt welcome and well taken care of. The food provided by Brulee Catering was not only delicious but beautifully presented, adding an extra touch of elegance to the evening.Overall, our entire team was blown away by the quality of service and the seamless execution of our holiday party. We received nothing but positive feedback from all of our employees, who unanimously agreed that it was one of the best events we've ever hosted.Thank you to the Museum of the American Revolution, Brulee Catering, and especially Jai and Lorena for helping to make our holiday party an unforgettable success! We look forward to working with them again in the future.
We had our wedding at the Museum of the American Revolution in August 2023, and Brulee far exceeded all of our expectations. Throughout the planning process, they were super accommodating to all of our requests, no matter how big or small. On the day of our wedding, the only way to describe the day was pure magic. We had numerous guests tell us it was the best wedding they had ever been to. Not only is the museum venue stunning and fun in and of itself, but Brulee is a well-oiled machine that makes everything run smoothly from start to finish. Every single staff member was friendly, helpful, and professional. They executed everything we asked them to do perfectly, and they went above and beyond. The food was the best wedding food we've ever had. It was delicious, and the entrees came out fast (and piping hot!). Not a single detail we discussed with them was overlooked, even down to the small things like placement of drink stirrers and cocktail napkins. Even all the table linens were ironed nicely. We were truly blown away by Brulee thanks to Lorena and the entire team. There's nothing we would have changed or done differently thanks to their flawless execution. Book the Museum of the American Revolution with Brulee for your wedding!
There aren’t enough stars or positive statements I can say in this review. Beyond Fantastic.My daughter had a 180-person wedding at the Museum of the American Revolution last week. I could not wait to write a review because it is unusual to feel the affair was better than dreamed and hoped for. I owe all the thanks to Lorena Somma, Senior Catering Sales Manager at the Museum of the American Revolution and her staff especially John, Kenya, Michaela and Victor. We worked with Lorena for almost two years and every interaction, requests, endless questions were all received with friendly, professional and capable responses. I thought she should have blocked my calls towards the end ( because she was on my speed dial I called so much), but she always received me with kindness and concern. She treated my event as if it was the only event she had to manage. The ceremony and reception ran without a hitch and better than we could imagine. I want to adopt her into our family because she made a dream come true. All the outside vendors also loved her and said how wonderful she is to work with.The food was incredible, the service impeccable. We had a long cocktail hour and full trays of food were served up until the start of dinner. I wanted to make sure there was ample food. It was beyond ample. All personal food requests at the reception where honored and never was anyone searching for a waiter to ask for something. The staff was quiet and polite. John and Kenya made sure that all I had to do is have a great time. And I surely did. John and Kenya, event captains, made sure the food was served at the proper time and to the proper people. Victor treated the vendors with respect and made sure they got served. Michaela (K) couldn’t have been anymore helpful to the bride and wedding party.
They were wonderful to work with. Everything they did was aimed at making our daughters wedding go as smooth as possible.From the start of the ceremony until the last guest left they were professional and pleasant.I would suggest them to anyone in a heart beat.

Rose and her team at the National Constitution Center in Philly are AMAZING!!! They were professional and on top of things while not making our guests feel smothered and staying flexible enough that we ended up with no timing issues. During the planning process Rose was very communicative and made very helpful suggestions/modifications. Overall we had a great experience and I would love to use Brulee again!!
Phenomenal catering service that we used for our wedding! The service, food and linens were all a 10/10. Would highly recommend. The service was impeccable and the staff was always polite and attentive. We are still receiving compliments 1 month later.
Brulee did a great job as our caterer at the Parkway Library in Philadelphia. They have a lot of great food options to pick from and were very helpful setting up furniture; picking linens, flatware, and plates; coordinating with our cake vendor, bartending the day of, etc. They also made our tasting really fun and our guests said that they loved the food at the wedding. Finally, we particularly appreciated all of the help that Alysha provided as the venue coordinator / representative that worked with us from Brulee. She really went above and beyond to make sure everything went off without a hitch on our wedding day.
Reviewing for the incredibly service we experienced during our wedding at the AmRev Museum. Lorena was absolutely incredible - warm, responsive, and knowledgeable. Our attendant day of, Nelle, was on point, and the food was amazing. Staff were friendly and engaging according to our guests. Couldn’t recommend them more!
These guys did a fantastic job this last week! The staff was friendly and professional. The food was absolutely outstanding! I am very impressed!
